This exhibition is an exploration of the emotional impact of transformation. In a space that has now grown and adapted to its cities contemporary needs, we cannot help but look back. The exhibition title, “Do You Remember Where The Window Was” acts as both a nostalgic and fearful question. Our romanticization of the past colliding with our fear of forgetting. Does the window symbolize our freedon or entrapment?
